The Pretty Flowers

The Pretty Flowers are a four-piece indie rock band from Los Angeles composed of Noah Green (vocals/guitar), Jake Gideon (guitar/vocals), Sam Tiger (bass/vocals) and Sean Johnson (drums). Their music has been described as hooky, heartfelt and literate. Their influences span more than a few decades of loud guitar indie and college rock, including: Guided By Voices, Echo & the Bunnymen, The Teardrop Explodes, Superchunk, Creeper Lagoon and The Lemonheads. The Big Takeover magazine said of The Pretty Flowers debut album, Why Trains Crash, “These Los Angeles hard power-poppers...play '90s style indie-rock that harkens back to later The Replacements early Weezer, a little Sloan and quite a bit of Wilco.” On July 14, 2023 the band released their sophomore album, A Company Sleeve, on their new label, Double Helix Records. It was produced by the band’s own Jake Gideon, engineered by Adam Lasus at Studio Red and mastered by Matthew Barnhart. It features the singles "Baby Food," "Hit Nothing," and "Wildflowers." Sweet Sweet Music Blog wrote, “A Company Sleeve, featuring twelve incredibly robust compositions, manages to surpass even [Why Trains Crash's] infectious appeal.” Rosy Overdrive wrote, “The album is more than worth this wait–it’s a very strong collection of earnest guitar rock that incorporates bits of slacker rock, jangle pop, college rock, power pop, pop punk, and heartland rock all led charismatically by Green’s clear, everyman vocals.”
